The synovial membrane or "synovium" encloses each joint and also secretes a lubricating fluid that allows different joint motions such as rolling, folding and stretching. When the synovium becomes inflamed or irritated, it increases fluid production, resulting in warmth, tenderness, and swelling in and around the joint.
Histology of a synovial membrane. H&E stain. The synovial membrane is variable but often has two layers: [4] The outer layer, or subintima, can be of almost any type of connective tissue – fibrous (dense collagenous type), adipose (fatty; e.g. in intra-articular fat pads) or areolar (loose collagenous type).
Synovitis, a hallmark of various joint disorders, including osteoarthritis, manifests as inflammation within the synovial membrane lining the joints. RSO aims to suppress overactive macrophage and synovial cells responsible for the inflammatory response, providing relief from pain and improving joint functionality.
Membranes can be either of connective tissue or epithelial tissue. Connective tissue membranes include the meninges (the three membranes covering the brain and spinal cord) and synovial membranes that line joint cavities. [18] Mucous membranes and serous membranes are epithelial with an underlying layer of loose connective tissue. [18]
an inner (synovial membrane, synovial stratum) which is a secreting layer On the inside of the capsule, articular cartilage covers the end surfaces of the bones that articulate within that joint. The outer layer is highly innervated by the same nerves which perforate through the adjacent muscles associated with the joint.
At just 19 years old, Eldiara Doucette — known on social media as "Bionic Barbie" — was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, a rare form of soft tissue cancer that affects only 1,000 people per ...
The inner membrane of synovial joints is called the synovial membrane and secretes synovial fluid into the joints. [3] Synovial fluid is an ultrafiltrate from blood, and contains proteins derived from the blood plasma and proteins that are produced by cells within the joint tissues. [4]
